This resource contains 10 different natural disaster templates to be used in conjunction with the Disaster Resilience Education for Schools website: schools.aemi.edu.au developed by the Australian Government. Each disaster has specific questions to be answered on the template. This information is then used by the children to produce a poster style project. I also get them to complete a short oral presentation on the information they have found.
This resource contains Science and Geography Concepts that are directly linked to the content descriptors and achievement standards of the Year 5 and 6 Australian Curriculum for Science and Geography.
